"Don’t live in the shadows of people’s judgment. Make your own choices in the light of your own wisdom.Don’t let anyone make you believe that the length of your skirt is a measure of your character. Don’t let anyone’s opinion of who you should be friends with, dictate who you will be friends with. Don’t get married for any other reason other than you want to get married. People will talk. They shall say some terrible things. But that doesn’t mean you have to listen to everyone. Never ever worry about that. At the end of the day, you are the only one who will face the consequences of your actions, so don’t let other people make your decisions for you."

"Navya – the privilege your name, your surname offers you, will not protect you from the difficulties you will face because you're a woman. Aaradhya – by the time you see and understand this, I may well not be around. But I think what I am saying today shall still be relevant. This may be a difficult, difficult world to be a woman. But I believe that it is women like you that will change that. It may not be easy, setting your own boundaries, making your own choices, rising above people's judgment. But YOU !…you can set an example for women everywhere. Do this and you would have done more than I have ever done, and it will be my honor to be known not as Amitabh Bachchan, but as your grandfather!," Big B shared in his letter.
